Quick ? Dark, Nils just changed to the six signal bar will this overwrite? I think it will but want to confirm
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
yes, this version was just for the Desire Z Rom. If you want one for the Nils Rom then I will have to make one. I should add that I have not reworked the default 6 bar signal bar yet. But everything else would be changed
I couldn't get any of the apks to work on SR 3.5. Has anyone else been able to?
Sweet.

Alright, so I am trying to use only a few of the icons rather than all of them, putting together a personal set. For some reason, I am unable to change the 3g icon. I have replaced all the data icons in framework and com.htc.resources, but for some reason I still have the stock icon when I boot up. Pulled both apks straight from my phone after flashing, and all changes are there, and all other icon changes are working, just not 3g icon. Any idea why? is there another change that needs to be made?

The 3G icons are located in a different place for Roms with Sense. It is still in com.htc.resources.apk that file is located under /System/framework/ I hope that helps.
I don't mind if people use certain icons just remember if you post a thread with them to give credit where it is due. The icons in the CI Premium were created by me. I did that so that they could have the transparent background

Oh I am not making anything for a release or anything, just compiling something for myself. But I did replace the icons in framework and in com.htc.resources in the beginning. That's why I am confused because I replaced all of the pngs related to 3g and it hasn't done anything.

It is good to see others customizing for themselves. I would double check that you for sure transfered the right image names into the files. In com.htc.resources uses a slightly different name. I would decompile the file and take a look just to make sure it overwrite the right images
I used to theme back in 2.1 and early 2.2 days, for some reason things seemed to be much easier back then. I have gone through both framework and resources making sure all 3g files have been replaced (properly named) and they are the new png's. The weird thing is, once I boot up the 3g icons are still stock no matter what I do, but the 1x icons are the new ones that I pushed in.
To get the mail and mms metamorph to work i needed to rename the draw folder by adding "-v4".. just a heads up!

MetaMorph has been updated so that all old MetaMorphs that use a .thm control file WILL NOT WORK! This guide has been updated to instruct you on how to convert your themes to the new format
MetaMorph uses .zip files for its themes which the app unzips and places in a folder.
Inside the .zip is a .xml file and several folders for the apps you want to edit. (For example, you'll see com.htc.resources and Rosie folders in themes that change the bottom bar.) Treat these folders as if they were the .apks themselves. They use the same folder structure. So if you have a file in the folder Rosie/res/drawable/ in your theme's .zip, then MetaMorph will open up Rosie.apk and stick it in the /res/drawable/ folder. Get it?
So that's how you place the files. And the great part about MetaMorph is that you only need to put in the files that you're changing. That's all it needs. This keeps the themes very small and easy to edit, since you can see exactly which files need to be changed!
To create your theme control file, download the attached theme_control_template.xml.txt (rename it to remove the .txt extension) and fill in the required fields using any xml editor (I recommend Notepad++). Name the .xml file the EXACT SAME NAME as the name of the theme. If they do not match they the theme won't work.
Once you have your .xml file created, zip up the folder, place it in the AndroidThemes folder on your sdcard and start MetaMorph. MetaMorph will unzip it, create a new, unzipped folder in AndroidThemes, and add a .nomedia file in there.
This is a very simple process that can easily be done in as little as 5 minutes.
Here is a more in-depth guide if you so desire (by the author of the app): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591329
And here is a collection of MetaMorphs created (Note: most of these WILL NOT work on Sense ROM's! Read what ROM each theme is created for carefullly! If you have a question, ask and someone will tell you if the theme is usable on your Hero): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589315
Thanks for the tutorial. I've always wondered why more people don't use metamorph (for the Hero at least). It's such a great application. Hopefully we'll see some new themes popping up soon. Thanks!
So If I wanted to change a file in rosie.apk I would only need to place the modded file in the apk into metamorph? All the other junk can be left out?
Just did a little more reading and looking at some examples and looks like I got it. Thank for the information
Yea I hope to see more themes using this, seems alot easier and more flexible for designers/themers

Custom_Font - Credit DeadBody79 *(note that this font causes some stacking in the text, such as the alarm clock time and some app names)*
Please Nandroid before installing. Both were verified with Damage Control v.2.05. Should work for any ROM based on DC v2.05, not verified on 1.5/6 ROMs although I think they would work if the font files are in the /system/fonts directory and named the same as the Morphs. Stock fonts have also been provided.
I am having bit a problem with MetaMorph. After I open up Metamorph, it says that it needs to check a few things to make sure the phone meets all the requirement. After I press "Start Checks" it opens up Superuser but does nothing. I know superuser is working fine cuz it works for wifi tether. What am i doing wrong?
What ROM version do you have installed? After it checked for updates did you get the option to select "allow", "Always Allow", etc.? If there was something wrong Metamorph would probably have given you and error.
Re: [Guide] MetaMorphing!
so use meta to change those fonts you zipped. wondering if there is a way to apply the font changes to only certain parts of the phone. would this make it easier to change the colors of backgrounds and menus etc?

Does anybody have a good resource for metamorph themes?
Edit: nevermind, missed the link on the first post. Any other suggestions are welcomed
Every theme I download and put on my sd card gives me a invalid theme or theme is missing error. I would know exactly what it said if it stayed up for more than a second and 1/2. I am downloading themes based on the Rom I have yet NOTHING will work. Am I missing a step here. I download, put it in the AndroidThemes dir on the sd card then open Metamorph Pro and extract. I then get the message about it being invalid or it is missing.

Running Dammage 2.06ROM
Looking for a little help here. I want to change my bluetooth images in the framework-res.apk.
I keep getting this error.....
"The theme you selected is invalid because the the theme control file could not be read and may be missing"
This is what I have in my .thm file...
framework-res.apk
/system/framework/
This is the directory structure for my zip file (test.zip)....
-test
- framework-res
- res
- drawable-mdpi
My .thm file is in the test directory my images are in the drawable-mdpi directory.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Is BusyBox required for this to work? I saw some posts that led me to believe it was but others don't say anything about it. I am rooted and downloaded Metamorph and it seem to run okay accept for the error when trying to load my zip file.
Thanks.
Ok, for the people who are getting invalid theme messages:
Recently, Stericson changed MetaMorph - Donate to MetaMorph Pro. MetaMorph Pro uses a different theme format than MetaMorph free does! Instead of using .thm files, it uses .xml files. This means that any themes that were made for MetaMorph free WILL NOT work for MetaMorph Pro! Kinda lame, I know, but that's the case for right now.
My best advice for you is to just install the free version for now. I know you paid $3 for the Pro version and I don't want you to waste your money, so as soon as I am able to I will look into converting these into themes compatible with MetaMorph Pro.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I saw that and also tried a xml file.
"<?xml version="1.0"?>
<item>framework-res.apk</item>
<path>/system/framework/</path>
"
That's what I had. Very basic but thought it was enough to work but got the same message.
I am running the free version 1.9.4 I think?
.
I decided to start this thread because I just finished my first EVO mod.
I'll continue to use this thread to post any more stuff I do in the future.
Don't expect too much from this thread, I'm pretty much a weekend warrior when it comes to this stuff but I do like to tweak things to my preference and if anyone else digs it then cool.
I'm partial to DC roms so anything I post here was built on DC, if it's not I will clarify.
Most DC mods will work on other roms also built on the Sprint release but I make no guarantees and will probably not be doing any testing on other builds

Battery Gauge Icons
I haven't figued out how to make the .xml's for metamorph so these are flashable signed.zips of each battery set.
I've also included a NON flashable .zip of all the flashable .zips and a .zip of the images for
those who would like to drop the .png's in themselves to preserve any other themes/mods (to the framework-res.apk).
See the bottom of this post for "How To Add .pngs to framework-res.apk".
None of these have a BG, I put gray behind them so you can see the depth a little better

Metamorph - View attachment GlowBattRN.zip
DOWNLOAD - batt_round_blue_signed.zip

These two .zips are NOT flashable.
They are a .zip of all of the flashable .zips above (if you want to try more than one )
and a .zip of the .pngs themselves along with the .psd (if anyone wants to play )
They also both include this Alarm ON Icon
Battery_Gauge_Set.zip (all the flashable zips above)
nebs_2.2_batt_Icons.zip (all the icon .pngs)
I just realized the Alarm ON Icon I included has the stock Sense taskbar bg..
Here is one w/o the bg if anyone wants it:

HOW TO CHANGE FRAMEWORK ICONS AND PRESERVE OTHER MODS:These instructions will work on Sprint/HTC as well as AOSP builds
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP !!!!
Plug phone into PC (USB)
Open a cmd prompt (may need to open as administrator in win7/vista, not sure)
Navigate to "c:\android-sdk\tools" (unless it's in your path)
Type the following:
Code:
adb remount
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\
Open a windows explorer window and locate the framework-res.apk you just pulled to c:\
Use 7zip or WinRAR to open the archive of the framework-res.apk (right click on the .apk)
In the archive of the .apk open res/drawable-hdpi, you should see a TON of .pngs
Open the folder that contains the images you want to use
Drag and drop the images into res/drawable-hdpi (the new images must be the same name as the original)
Close 7zip/WinRAR
Go back to your cmd prompt and type:
Code:
adb push c:\framework-res.apk /system/framework
[COLOR="green"][B]#Once the push is finished QUICKLY TYPE:[/B]
[/COLOR]
adb reboot
*Replacing framework-res can have some funky effects on the phone. When you are booted (only once, the first time after pushing the apk) it's likely your wallpaper will be reset to stock and you may have to add your google account back and re-sync, neither have been terribly inconvenient for me
how do you install? sorry for a noobish question.

I really liked the glassy looking 6bar battery icon set on the hero.
Beautiful man! Love it, had my nexus like that too. Looks real slick with the clear lock screen too. My phone is comming together perfectly, and you helped with that. So THANK YOU
Its one from the nexus one. Its a circular six part one. See attached.

Working on stuff for 2.2 now..
I will be posting a transparent tray for DC FroYo soon
Right now I'm working on some taskbar icons. I thought it might be cool to have a fuel gauge for the battery..
I have the whole battery set done once I get a couple more things done I'll zip and sign an update if anyone's interested
I thought about doing a speedometer for cdma but FroYo only uses 4 icons..

Thanks for the Morph. Looks like I am the first one to try
Will report how it goes.
looks pretty good
but how can i apply it on modaco's r21 frf91 rom?
i m new to themes
EDIT: nevermind,i found about the MEtamorhp app,but why does it require "full internet access"?
EDIT 2: unzipped theme from MEtaMorph, applied,and was getting repeated FC's (process.android.PHONE)
took the battery out
gonna try for a last time
EDIT 3:reboot and i m missing two home screen icons, setting menu is using new coloured icons,rest of the phone not
EDIT 4: (last one) just noticed its for your own ROM but i m not gonna install it,i m happy with modaco's ****
Doesn't work
The control file is missing or is not written correctly according to metamorph.
didnt work
Ok tried on theofficial ROM but unforutnately didnt work. says some files were missing. too bad, as i really liked theoffical rom but at the same time desire feel...
Sorry guys im new to metamorph but all you really have to do is copy the files to the folders in the apk's I suggest using winrar or an app such as that and just coopy them in and push them :\ sorry I dont know how to do it right..but ill upload just the files if you guys want?

Thanks, so nice of you to offer to upload files. I assume I can unzip files from theme you already uploaded. So if you could just point what files to be copied to what folders it would be very helpful.
Thanks man!
someone that knows how to do,can create a flashable package?
I gave this a go but got a few issues.
First time I ran it on MCR R21 I noticed that there where spelling mistakes in the XML file which may have meant the theme was trying to be applied to apk that didnt exist!
So i corrected the spelling mistakes however when it was trying to apply the changes to the phone.apk this caused it to Force Close in a loop.
The only way to get round this was to reboot. No major problem...
I took out the section in the morph xml to not apply anything for the phone.apk and tried again this wen't through without any problems however on reboot it caused the phone to boot loop. it got past the static X logo but didnt get to the animation and was boot looping on a black screen
again no major issue as i had done a nandroid so just did a wipe and restore
Just trying to help really
ok scratch that!
I managed to create an update.zip however it caused a couple of FC's and the clock and notification text wasn't white! in fact the text for the network identification doesn't exist!
I thought this might have been because i didnt include androidmanifest.xml and resources.arsc so i included them into the framework-res.apk but this caused a bootloop! :S
anyone got any suggestions?
I really, really like this. Simple, clean, sexy. But I'm not grasping what needs to be done to apply this. Could someone explain?
Update.zip added for simple install.. Since metamorph was having problems...
make sure you are installing the update.zip on a clean install because all its doing is replacing some files with the customized ones
made it easier and should not be any problems now.

There was a screw up in the update-script :\
Patch applied without error, didn't change anything
It ran without an error but everything looks exactly stock. It didn't change anything. Keep up the good work though death, once again sorry we got into it!
UPDATE:
Ok so I went through everything, the update-script, the manifest and there's no reason that this shouldn't be working. I have ****ed with a lot of stuff -- it is MCR21. All I've really done though is change applied some Swype skins in metamorph and moved APKs that I consider critical (Swype, LauncherPro), to the system/app folder because I'm using a2sd and I'm only using a Class 2 SD. So the question is is it just my device or are other people facing this problem too?
I'm going to try pushing this stuff manually -- I'll get back to you.

A few things changed when I applied this theme, but the most noticeable change to me (the bar up top) remained white. That's one of the most important aspects of the phone I wanted changed.
Just push the files out manually
Push the files to the device manually according to the directory structure in the ZIP file. It takes a little longer but it's totally worth it. It looks AWESOME. Thanks death!

v2 added
Changed SMS/MMS Icon for status bar notification
You know my GlasStatusbar? You know my DesireBar? you like it?
OK, I've played a bit with Samsung Galaxy S and Sony XperiaX10 ROMs and I've seen that there are some buttons and pop ups, I like more than the stock Android ones.
So I've mixed it up, my GlasStatusBar, my DesireBar, the Samsung Buttons and some pieces of Xperia.
This here is the result and I like it very much and wanna share it to you!
Look here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This are the Notification Icons:
This is my GlasStatusBar
And this is my DesireStatusbar
What changes this morph:
- Statusbar
- Battery Icons
- WiFi Icons
- Mobile Icons
- GPS Icon
- Gmail Statusbar Icon
- Email Statusbar Icon
- SMS/MMS Statusbar Icon
- Google Talk Statusbar Icon
- Statusbar drawer
- Buttons and Pop-Up Dialogs
Installation and Downloads
At first I have to say something new!
The new Metamorph seems to be a bit unstable by applying themes with coloured text in the statusbars. Some of you have reported problems while applying it. So I have decided to make the theme applying in a few little steps.
This is a Metamorph Theme. You have to install Metamorph (or better: Metamorph Pro) from the market. Copy the following files to your SD Card in the folder "AndroidThemes"
If you have problems
Check following
1. Have you downloaded the correct files for your ROM?
2. Have you debugging enabled in the Android Menu?
3. Install "Titanium Backup" start it and hit the "Problems?" Button, then it installs a correct busybox version. This is required!!!
4. In Metamorph, press Menu, and play with the applying speed. Choose a speed above 4200!
5. Never check the "Disable startup checks" in Metamorphs settings
5.2. If the notification text isn't white, reapply the second zip file. Metamorph is a bit buggy with it. I must apply it four times, but it still works
6. Never, never, never rename the zipfile. If you do this, you become error messages like "Theme Control File Missing"
7. If U use ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro and have a Black StatusBar with static Wallpapers: Go to ADW Settings and Disable the "Wallpaper Hack" With LauncherPro there is no chance. Write this Problem to Fede from LauncherPro, that he make it switchable

Some Icons in the Settings and in the "Off-Screen" are from another (see first screenshot) Theme I can't find now! Thanks to the Dev for this!!! PM me, if its yours, please!
HAVE FUN!!!
tkanks Formel,
now try
installed and it looks fine ...
maybe you can change the battery icon with new one, and put a new trans signal bar ...
what do you think about ?
tks
looks good but what about themeing the "phone" too?
now it looks like this, maybe if it's possible to change the green to blue and when pressing the numbers we get blue?
here is a screenshot and I have written blue where it should be blue
btw, would be nice with the Xperia X10 dialpad and layout
Yes, that's true.
I'm on it. I extract the Galaxy S ROM more and more and look what there is.
You must know, I use DialerOne.
But I will look what I can do with this.

having the installing thee latest glass version on the latest enom rom.when trying to installing all, have reboots. only way to succeed is to increase the time ( settings in metamorph) and install one by one. secondly, the status bar is transparent everywhere except in the home screen where it is black indifferent of the wallpaper.
You read the first post, the section about problems? There everything is explained. ;-)

So I've looked all the other Apps.
Some are the same as Stock, without any differences. Others are completely new.
So I can't copy any of the pictures to our Nexus Apps.
Sorry, everything I can port is ported.
There are a Handfull of Icons, but not worth to work on it. Sorry.

Hey guys just wanted to share something that I found on the other device forums on XDA
PLEASE MAKE A FULL XRECOVERY/NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE TRYING ANY SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS LIKE THIS
[1] BootAnimation [works on all ROMs]
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I dont know if it has been posted here before but here is the boot animation from Honeycomb, tailored for our screen sizes.
P.S.: this is not created/modified by me, I had found it while browsing on the other Android forums @ XDA but I cant recollect from which thread I downloaded this...
check attached files XOOM_Honeycomb.rar
there are landscape and portrait versions... i prefer the landscape one
[2] Lock Screen [works on CM6/ CM7 mods, DOESNOT work with 2.1]
This is from: Lockscreen Mod for CM7 (Honeycomb Wannabe Lockscreen) by bizdady
all credit goes to him, great job dude!!!
please read the first post of that thread completely before proceeding
for this lockscreen u will need a few thigs:
*** if you dont know how to push/pull files from device visit the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842060
A) Clock font
Download the attached file "honeycomb_lockscreen_clockfont.zip" place it on the root of ur SDCARD and flash it via xRecovery, reboot...
B) "Lock" button
{Method 1} Automated (havent tried this myself by is suggested by the OP of that thread)
To get the lock follow the part on "Metamorph Instructions" given in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959602 thread and for X10...
If your not sure about which version your phone uses just use Astro or any other file manager and take a look at your /system/framework-res.apk file. Browse file the file and navigate over to the /res folder and you will see a drawable folder with either hdpi or hdpi-v4. Proceed to download whichever version your rom uses.
incase its HDPI the d/l this file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/vchfnuiekvi3syi/Honeycomb_Lock_HDPI.zip...
incase its HDPI-v4 the d/l this file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/7tqgs778yeawbqm/Honeycomb_Lock_HDPI-v4.zip
further instructions are given in above mentioned thread.
{Method 2} Manual-round-about-way (this is what I followed and works on FreeX10-Beta4+CM6 settings; should also work on CM7)
1> pull the file "framework-res.apk" from the /system/framework/ of ur current ROM, and make a copy of this file as a backup incase something goes wrong
2> extract the contents of the "Honeycomb_Lock_HDPI.zip" file stated above into another folder on ur computer. u will the get the following folders: framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi & framework-res\res\drawable-land-hdpi
3> open the "framework-res.apk" which you got from step 1 in WinRAR http://www.rarlab.com/ (this is wht i used), browse to framework-res.apk\res\ within WinRAR and copy the contents from the folders u got from step 2 to into the corresponding folders, i.e. files from framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi (or hdpi-v4) into framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi (or hdpi-v4) and files from framework-res\res\drawable-land-hdpi (or hdpi-v4) into framework-res.apk\res\drawable-land-hdpi (or hdpi-v4), within winrar window [while adding the files winrar will through up a window titled "Archive name and parameters" in this MAKE SURE THAT THE COMPRESSION METHOD IS CHANGED IT TO "STORE", after that click OK, the files will be replaced/added to the apk file]
4> once all files have been replaced, push the modified "framework-res.apk" to /system/framework/ on ur device. [they phone may reboot, but thats normal no need to panic]
* Incase either of these methods dont work just post ur framework-res.apk file here and i will do the necessary modifications n post it back...
Enjoy the Honeycomb look for your LockScreen!!!
Heres a flashable zip of the clock font only.

Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I'm on Free X10 beta 4, CM 6 (something). And lockscreen isn't applied with metamorph. It's just saying applying theme, but nothing happens.
When I tried to apply lockscreen manually, phone restarts and at some point bootscreen hangs, green led stays on and phone vibrates continiusly - so it's bricked.
I did get to recover system files with xrecovery.
But my question is, do I have to apply CM 7? Isn't there a way to use it on CM 6 or is this baseband problem, because my baseband version is 55.
I understanded that it works with CM 6 too.
Sorry for my bad English.

1stly i myself havent tried the Metamorph method...
manual method doesnt work? thats odd.. cause i am myself using FreeX10-beta4 + CM6 settings (on baseband 2.1.55) and manual way works flawlessly... sorry that ur device got bricked @ boot...
no no u dont need to apply CM7 (thats based on GB, a totally diff OS version 2.3.x)... it should work on CM6...
do one thing since u have got ur current system running just pull the framework-res.apk file from /system/framework/ and post it here (use some compression software, e.g.: winrar)... i will modify it and post it back...
btw did the clock font atleast change? and wht abt the bootscreen?
Clock font worked flawlessly, bootscreen I haven't tried.
Btw I pulled framework-res.apk with root explorer. Framework-res.apk is in attachment.

which ROM are u using?
do u have a X10 (came preinstalled with 2.1) or X10 HD (came preinstalled with 2.1)?
I'm using zdzihu 's Free X10 Beta 4 rom and CM 6 (I think it was CM-6.1.3-V4, but I'm not sure).
My X10i came with preinstalled 1.6.

i think i figured out the problem... the framework-res.apk which u posted is HDPI-v4 based as compared to HDPI (for which the link was posted in main post)... if u want to try the Metamorph method again try it with this file: HDPI-v4: http://www.mediafire.com/file/7tqgs778yeawbqm/Honeycomb_Lock_HDPI-v4.zip
anyways i had modified it to work for ur framework-res.apk... its attached here...
let me know if it works...
Yeah, I know that I need HDPI-v4. And I tried with HDPI-v4 metamorph - it didn't work. I tried with HDPI too and it didn't work either.
I'm gonna try your modifyed framework.
Your modifyed framework didn't work too. Again it just hanged in bootscreen. And again I restored to same point.
em ok... I am out now will create a recovery package when I get back

Give it a go then. Personally I hate 3rd party lockscreen apps as there is always that 1 sec lag for me, I have no knowledge of this app but it looks like another theme. Doubt you can move it around like the real honeycomb lock.
I tryed this app. There is a privew from honeycomb. You can move it around, but clock keeps moving around too. And if I press 2x back button, it just goes to homescreen. So it's too buggy.
And I don't really like 3rd party lockscreen too. So i sick with your lockscreen. It's really good looking.
